  • Effective morning sickness help?

    A friend of mine is about two months pregnant and having pretty bad morning sickness. She works early in the mornings so she needs some help! The website offers lots of "remedies", but I'd like to ask all of you what you've found to actually be effective, where you bought it, and how well it worked. Thank you!

  • What are some non-chemical ways to deal with a yeast infection?

    After spending a summer as a camp counselor, constantly in a damp swimsuit, recurrent yeast infections have been a problem. I've tried the anti-fungal stuff from the pharmacies but it only seems to provide temporary relief and just offset the balance worse in the long run.

    Plain yogurt and talc powder seem to have helped a LOT but I wondered what some other ways people deal with this problem are?

  • This is hamster advice.?

    This isn't a question, its more advice for all those who are complaining about their hamsters.

    First, dwarf hamsters are naturally more aggressive than the other breeds, so try looking into getting a teddy bear or similar species.

    Second, if your hamster is biting, is it scared? Think about what its like for a hamster, to have someone's gigantic hand enter their home and try to grab them.

    Third. Treat train! The key to winning the trust of a small animal is always treats. But, be sure to use healthy treats such as bits of carrot or sunflower seeds. Lots of dried fruit can give your pet a sugar overload.

    Fourth, you should ALWAYS ask to handle the hamsters at the pet store. The employee may know how to grab aggressive ones, but you won't find out until you get home.

    Last, while hamsters are common pets, can I suggest gerbils instead? They're also nearly odor free, don't have hairless tails (they have cute little tufts on the ends!), and are very sociable towards people with just a little training. They also come in a wide variety of colors. Unlike hamsters though, make sure you buy two, because they are very sociable and will get sick if kept alone.

  • Degu wheezing, help please!?

    My 6 year old female degu has been mouth-breathing and sneezing occasionally for about the past 48 hours. I can tell her nose is stuffy, and she keeps wiping at it. I thoroughly cleaned their cage, food, water, etc. as soon as I noticed the issue but symptoms have not cleared up any.

    She is trying to be active as normal but running in her wheel wears her out because of the breathing difficulty. There is no discharge from the nose or eyes. I figure it's probably a respiratory infection but might not be able to get her to the vet for another 48 hours. Any ideas on how to help her breathe a little easier in the meantime?

  • Math story problem help?

    I can't figure out the proper way to set up an equation for this. Don't solve it for me! I just need an equation set up, because that's where I'm getting stuck o_0

    Suppose that you want to blend two teas in order to obtain 10 pounds of the new blend that sells for $3.50 per pound. Tea A sells for $4.00 per pound and Tea B sells for $2.75 per pound. Assuming that there will be no difference in revenue from selling the new blend versus selling the tea separately, determine the number of pounds of each tea that will be required in the blend.

    Also, when you set up the equation, please use the variables A, and B so I know what you're talking about :P

    Thank you!

  • All the good music is from Europe?

    I am writing a paper (argument format, but opinion-based) about why and how I think all the good music originates in Europe. I'm having a difficult time coming up with enough reasons I believe this to fill a 3 page paper.

    I have already noted that the lyrics sound more inspired, and that the Beatles changed the face of music in the U.S. but I would like some other reasons.

    If you have any examples of music being better in/from Europe, I'd love to hear them!

  • What are some home remedies for a UTI?

    What are some good things to do at home to help cure or relieve a UTI (urinary tract infection)? I've heard that drinking tons of water and cranberry juice to acidify your urine and wash out the bacteria helps. Are there any other home remedies?

    (note: I do believe in taking antibiotics, just looking for other things that'll help)

  • Need relief from urethral burning after sex!?

    Past couple times I've had sex there has been a persistent but short-lived burning sensation and urge to urinate afterwards. It also hurts to pee, like a strong tingling/burning feeling. This past time though, I was rather dry and I think got very irritated down there. Now I have an intense burning and urge to urinate!!! Its very troublesome, as I keep running to the bathroom and don't even want to move because the rubbing hurts. Does anyone know how I can obtain relief?

    I always shave with the grain of the hair and use lotion after shaving so usually this isn't an issue. But recently I got an ingrown hair on my inner thigh that won't go away! I "popped" it but now it's turned into a slightly hard sore red bump. What's the best way to make this go away and prevent it from happening again?
